How To: Practice Uber Elder for Free with a Simulator

Taken from my old Oni Molten Strike Scion-Slayer-Raider build guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2115430

Guide is based on that build, but can be adapted to any build with some tweaking to the life, life regen, and SR or RF dps to match your build. And you can make the fight harder for yourself by lowering these values.


Uber Elder Training
Go to this website (not my creation): poesimulator.github.io
Click Customize Jugg
Set to Custom, then input these numbers (use lower values to make it harder, or try to match your build).
Max Life: 7000
Life Regen: 2000-2400 (28-34%)
RF Degen: 0
SR Dps (per stack): 0
RF Dps: 750000-1500000 (750k - 1.5M. Assumes 7M Shaper DPS or 5M Uber Elder Setup DPS)
Set your controls and being simulation. Use the 0 damage Scorching Ray to simulate attacking in place. Practice until you can do it deathless more than once or until you feel ready for the real thing.
The only things missing from the simulation are the Elder & Shaper portal phases. Watch some YouTube videos of Uber Elder to see what those look like.

Uber Elder Tips
Avoid: Shaper's Projectile Balls, Shaper's Teleport Slam, Elder's Expanding Nova (stay inside the ring), Elder's Siphon.
Tank: Everything else, but pay attention to how fast your life drops from damage over time (eg. Shaper's Beam).
All damage over time effects on the ground can generally be safely ignored since we'll finish the fight before they become a problem.

Loving it! How long did it take you to make this, if I may ask? Really good job.

I didn't make the simulator. I'll make note of that in OP.

Still really good, playing it while I wait for the servers to become more stable.
